Demons, devils, ghosts and monsters Plunge the mortals weak in horrors; Arms of gods and blades of devils, Shroud the world in untold evils. Lu Sheng was an ordinary civil servant in the modern world. After waking from a drunken stupor one day, he found himself trapped in a dangerous world where demons, ghosts and supernatural monsters terrorize the land. In this world, ordinary mortals live in dark fear and helplessness, without any means to fight against the supernatural. As Lu Sheng struggles desperately for survival, he stumbles upon a game mod he had designed for a mobile phone app in his previous life. It unexpectedly becomes his special ability, which enables him to instantly level up any skill he learns, albeit at a cost. Thus, Lu Sheng begins his journey, striving for power beyond the reach of a mortal as he treads the way of the Devil…
"Oh?" Lu Sheng was delighted. He did not expect that his casual attempt actually got him closer to learning about Taoist skills.
He quickly followed up with another question. "Where's your teacher now? Can he teach me Taoist skills?"
His question was so straightforward that Wu Youzi felt helpless.
The sect he was born into was a remote minor sect called the Clear Crane Sect. It was said that the grandmaster originated from the Indefinite Cult and learned the skills of herding red-crown cranes.
There was a great disturbance once, and the grandmaster fled the sect. However, the grandmaster's skill was not useful elsewhere, and he did not learn the method to prolong his life. Out of helplessness, he decided to forego his pride and joined the secular world where he attached himself to high-ranking officials and spent his days free and unfettered for decades.
